This morning Apple unveiled the new Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro’s. The new MBP’s are up to 39% faster than their predecessor (that’s pretty damn fast), sporting 2.16GHz and 2.33GHz processors. Pricing starts at a cool $1999 for 15-inch 2.16GHz and go all the way up to $2799 for the 17-inch 2.33GHz. If that wasn’t enough Apple went along and upgraded all the ram, that’s right, double the ram across the board. The 2.16GHz machines now ship with 1GB of ram, and both the 2.33GHz models come with a whopping 2GB’s of ram (with support for 3GB). Some of you will be happy to know that Firewire 800 is back on both the 15 and 17 inch models, as well as a 6x Dual-Layer Superdrive.
